LA ESTAMEÑA

LEONOR, courtesan – Ailén Monti Valdés

ROMERICO, king's Chamberlain  –  Elias Ongay

JUAN, king's Chamberlain  –  Alberto Palacios

ANTONILLA, courtesan – Jaia Niborski

FÉLIX, musician – Silas Bischoff

NICOLAS, musician – Stephen Moran

Directed by Ailén Monti Valdés, the performance involves six musicians who play characters and have dialogues in between the songs. The musical pieces are arranged in a theater scene that reenacts the stage practice of the beginning of the 16th century. The project is focused on two Spanish songbooks of the early 16th century: the Cancionero de Palacio and the Codex Segovia. These manuscripts contain music from Spain, Flanders, and Italy, courts that had a close relationship and exchange of repertoires and musicians. The program is complemented by music from other Italian sources such as the Cancionero de Montecassino, Paris 676, the Thibault lute manuscript, and prints by Petrucci. In addition, new music for introductions and transitions as well as arrangements were written by Ailén following models of the time.

Ensemble La Enstameña:

The performance involves six musicians who play characters and have dialogues in between the songs. The musical pieces are arranged in a theater scene that tries to reenact the stage practice of the beginning of the 16th century, instead of reproducing an ideal concert practice typical of the 19th century, where songs are performed one after another.
